Well, I don’t even see a “home page” when going to Manage– > Pages. And these links are on all pages on the site. Where would I look at templates? * Oh, wait… * Presentation –> Theme Editor –> Header * THERE THEY ARE!

Your instructions worked perfectly well, but the one question I have is… * This still leaves the code unencrypted. So in the generated HTML code I can still see the information such as the price, email address, etc… That’s what I am trying to avoid, which is what the “encrypted” part does. Now the info is definitely not as glaringly obvious this way, so it **IS **an improvement. But is there a way to remove that info completely?

But on the site itself, there is no mention of Pages, and like I said, this is all new to me. I need to understand it before I can train them on it. So now that I’ve created the Page, how do i get to it (other than “View” from the admin panel)? In my hacking of the php files, have I inadvertently removed the pages section? What php file( s) would it be in? * I think this’ll work if i can effectively learn it… * Chris * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Eliminate comments on single post page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eliminate-comments-on-single-post-page/) * Thread Starter [WorldBuilder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/worldbuilder/) * (@worldbuilder) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eliminate-comments-on-single-post-page/#post-711652) * Hi Moshu, * Well, I already did disable comments before I ever posted this question.

I have two entirely separate installations of WP. Obviously, each one has the same “theme”, based on my CSS. * But as you can see in my original post, the “single” pages of each individual blog is different, which is what I don’t understand. I just looked at both single. php files and they are identical in every way, line for line. So I don’t see how the code of the file itself could be the problem. * The workshops single post page at [http://www.chrisbartlett.net/bi3/workshops/?p=5](http://www.chrisbartlett.net/bi3/workshops/?p=5) says “You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.” It also has the form where someone can leave a comment. **I want all that gone.** * The News single post page at [http://www.chrisbartlett.net/bi3/news/?p=8](http://www.chrisbartlett.net/bi3/news/?p=8) says “Both comments and pings are currently closed.” It does not have that comment form, but rather text that simply says “Comments are closed.” * That is exactly how I would like the Workshops single post page to appear. And it seems to me that the php code generates the page content dependent on settings from the admin console. * But I’ve looked over both of those and unless I’m missing something, they are identical, too! * Bottom line is that on the Workshops single post page, I want it to say exactly the same thing as the News single post page does. * How can I do that?

I will look into this tonight and hopefully can work it out based on your advice. I will let you know with a post! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Eliminate comments on single post page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eliminate-comments-on-single-post-page/) * Thread Starter [WorldBuilder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/worldbuilder/) * (@worldbuilder) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eliminate-comments-on-single-post-page/#post-711570) * Thanks for the reply! * Well, regarding the index, I think you mean NOT seeing anything about comments on the main page, such as this: [http://www.chrisbartlett.net/bi3/workshops/](http://www.chrisbartlett.net/bi3/workshops/) * Right? If that’s what you mean, as you can see it’s already done. * But regarding the single page (and the php file that controls it), I know not if I will screw anything up by simply deleting code. Could you be more specific as to what code to remove? * The reason I ask is because when I look at the two single.php files I have (one for NEWS and one for WORKSHOPS), they are identical (as far as I can see. But there must be a code difference, eh? * Thanks! * Chris * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Eliminate comments on single post page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eliminate-comments-on-single-post-page/) * Thread Starter [WorldBuilder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/worldbuilder/) * (@worldbuilder) * [18 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eliminate-comments-on-single-post-page/#post-711565) * Any ideas?

As it turns out, the only problem was that I am a moron. I was editing the search.php file on my TEST server, and refreshing the web page of my REAL site. * After realizing that, I went to the test page in the browser, and guess what?
